Some of you may wonder why I would go out of my way to make this wall of text to set the facts straight if it wasn't really the ritual posted. the answer to that is very simple. I don't like anyone disrespecting my fraternity without justification. You see that posted ritual and you lose respect for us because it's no longer a secret. I can promise everyone reading this right now that if you want a real look at our sacred ritual then enroll in a university, and complete all of the processes of initiation.
Now maybe some of you are former pledges that tried to be one of the hallowed few to see the sacred ritual of Sigma Chi and failed. Maybe some of you are the outsider that is envious of the popularity that comes with being part of this fraternity. Maybe some of you are are just opposition defiant and demand sources to every statment ever made by those who cherish the code that we live by. Whatever the case may, I am truly sorry you will never experience the true values at which we hold ourselves.

Brother, slow your roll.
#1 - I don't know where your advisor came up with the story about releasing fake rituals for parents to read. He obviously needs to go through Cornerstone Mentoring or Horizons training, again. HQ does not release "fake rituals" to confuse the matter more. I think the opinion of HQ is that there are more important things to worry about than wondering if someone has read a fake ritual or not.
#2 - Agree. I don't like someone disrespecting Sigma Chi, either. However, I doubt that if someone read our ritual, they would stop respecting us. Like everyone else's ritual, ours has a deep, personal meaning to us. If our ritual ended up in someone else's hands and they read it, it would still have a deep meaning to me.
#3 - I would bet money that not one active poster on here would attempt to read the Sigma Chi ritual (unless they are already a Sig). They have their own secret rituals and respect the secrecy of ours.
Our ritual and our Creed are guides for everyday. Something to remember.
